Industrial Data Space: research into future ICT-architectures for industrial actors to share data in a controlled way. These architectures should allow an ‘economy of data’ to emerge providing new business opportunities for using data for new smart services and to support new digital (manufacturing) processes such as smart supply chains for tailor-made products, ‘zero defect’ manufacturing and maintenance of products during their entire lifecycle. Distributed ledger technologies are considered to be an important technology for setting-up such architectures.
